THE PROGRAM
Blue Future and the Grassroots Democrats HQ run 9-week paid organizing programs for youth leaders.
As part of this program, young people will be trained in the principles of field organizing and broader leadership development skills. Folks will have the opportunity to volunteer directly for candidates fighting for democracy and make a difference on some of the most competitive campaigns across the country.
This program is a leadership development training opportunity for young people to be engaged in progressive political campaigns. The program will be completely digital and remote to allow young people anywhere to get involved.
